I was on the fence but decided to renew. While the rollout was bungled, they also gave us a $50 fanatics live credit which was not originally part of the deal. A free team break of gilded was a nice unexpected bonus. The value of the complete set, savings on a box here and there, access to popular product without having to be at my computer waiting on release day, and the slight potential for NBA and NFL products in the future, makes it worth it to me. I also really enjoy Brooklyn Collection so wanted to be sure I got access to it at the cheapest price possible.

Unfortunately, they appear to have no interest in satisfying customers.
“Satisfaction Guaranteed” is what every Topps product I’ve had since Fanatics took over says.

I renewed on the day the renewal window opened, but still getting reminder emails.
Is that same for everyone?

Didn't renew. Had a little FOMO, but then realized that there was no chance I'd have any POMO. Haven't bought anything with my membership since early 2022.

Did not renew. Too bad they discontinued the small sets.

What percentage of folks do you think renewed? I'm guessing right at 2/3, but I can see that being overly optimistic.

It'll also depend on what "one per house" really means as well. Did those that they gave exceptions to last year get theirs dropped down as well?

Good call. I had forgotten that many have multiple accounts. I think a lot of those got out last year though. Still plenty left to be purged though.

Would be nice if Topps ever told us how many members there are/were.

I renewed. Figure it's a roughly $100-$125 lottery ticket assuming I can net $25-$50 on the sealed set. Even just early access to one or two sets that I like makes it basically a marginal cost, let alone if there ends up being wax that is an easy flip.

Worst case, I'm out $150

Would be even nicer if they serial-numbered the 582 factory sets…

Truly don't understand this mindset. They're opening up to the public to buy memberships. And people are way overestimating the profits they think they're going to make on said products once released
